Introduction: There is a controversy on single dose or multiple doses of prophylactic antibiotics for prevention of surgical site infection during laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a developing country setting. The objective of this study was to compare single versus multiple doses of prophylactic antibiotics in terms of surgical site infection in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients. Methods: This was a prospective, comparative, randomized study was conducted in a medical college hospital. Two hundred consecutive patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis planned for routine laparoscopic cholecystectomy were enrolled in the study. Patients were randomly divided in a Single dose (SD) group and multiple dose (MD) group. SD group were given injection ceftriaxone (1gm) before induction of anesthesia and MD group received ceftriaxone (1gm) before induction of anesthesia and continued a total of 3 doses postoperatively for next 24 hours. Results: A total of 200 patients were studied, of which 100 were in single dose (SD group) and another 100 in multiple dose (MD group). The mean age of patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis was 41.76 ± 13.38 years with minimum of 16 years and maximum of 73 years. Of the total patients, 4 patients in single dose (SD) group and 3 patients in multiple dose (MD) group developed surgical site infection of various severity which was not statistically significant. (p=0.500). Conclusion: There is no difference in terms of surgical site infection in patients taking either single or multiple doses of antibiotics in laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a medical college setting in Nepal.

Objective: To compare the frequency of port site wound infection following gall bladder removal through umbilical and epigastric port in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Study Design: Randomized Control Trial. Setting: Surgical Unit 2, Ghulam Muhammad Mahar Medical College, hospital Sukkur. Period: 1st November 2019 to 30th October 2020. Material & Methods: All cases who underwent four port laparoscopic cholecystectomy were enrolled in two groups. All procedures were performed under general anesthesia. As the last event of surgery gall bladder was retrieved in a glove bag through umbilical port in group A and through epigastric port in group B, both under direct camera vision. Wound infection was considered if there was 3 to 5 grade of wound according to Southampton wound grading system (Figure-1) on 5th postoperative day. All demographics and outcome variables were recorded. Results: Age ranged from 20 to 60 years with mean age of 38.875±8.11 years, BMI 29.973±5.12 Kg/m2, duration of surgery 50.656±8.41 mins and Southampton score was 1.044±1.07 in Group A and mean age of 38.560±6.23 years, BMI 27.437±5.04 Kg/m2, duration of surgery 48.920±8.67 mins and Southampton score was 0.856±0.92 in Group B. In group A, 18 (5.7%)patients developed port site wound infection in contrast to 5 (1.6%) patients in group B (P= 0.006). Conclusion: We conclude that epigastric port retrieval of gall bladder following laparoscopic cholecystectomy results in less port site infection.

The study was conducted in the Department of General Surgery, Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal over the period of one & half year. Evaluation started with History and clinical examination including range of movement of joints. Scar was scored as per Clinical Assessment Score. Range of movement was measured using goniometer. Although most patients came for follow up and were compliant with the rehabilitation protocol, their compliance needs to be re-evaluated at every follow up and they should be encouraged to follow the advices strictly. Also they must be counseled that contracture may not be corrected to the full extent despite best of treatment and compliance with rehabilitation protocol but a good level of improvement can be achieved. Keywords: Burn, Surgery, Rehabilitation & Recurrence.

Background: The gallbladder is a hollow organ that sits just beneath the right lobe of the liver. Chief functioning of gallbladder is to store gall, also known as bile that is required for digestion of food. Removing gallbladder through small incision in the abdomen is called laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Among benefits of cholecystectomy are decreased need for postoperative analgesia, decreased postoperative pain and shortened hospital stay from 1 week to less than 24 hours. Objective: To compare the frequency of port site wound infection with and without endogloves techniques of retrieval of gallbladder in pouch after laparoscopic cholecystectomy for chronic calculus cholecystitis. Design: It was a randomized controlled trial. Study Settings: This study was conducted at Department of General Surgery, Midland Doctors Medical Institute Tandali Muzaffarabad from July 2019 to July 2021 Material and Methods: A total of 260 cases who fulfilled inclusion criteria were enrolled in the study through wards of Department of General Surgery. Written informed consent was obtained from all the patients. Two groups were made by random division of patients. Conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed in patients of group I. Through umbilical port gall-bladder was retrieved in these patients, exactly spot on by a sterile surgical hand glove endobag. Vicryl “O” with J-shaped needle was used to close 10mm umbilical port (fascial defect) and 5mm ports were conventionally closed. In patients of group II, conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed and gall-bladder was retrieved as in patients of group I but without using surgical sterile hand glove endobag. Results: The mean age of the patients in study group was 48.09±15.402 years and in control group it was 47.51±16.48 years. Male to female ratio was 1.06:1. The post-op wound infection was found in 11 (4.23%) patients. Statistically significant difference was found in groups (P<0.05). Conclusion: The use of endoglove technique of retrieval of gallbladder in pouch after laparoscopic cholecystectomy for chronic calculus cholecystitis is safe, cheap, simple and potentially reduces significant port site wound infection compared to without endogloves. Keywords: Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy, Endoglove, Gallbladder (GB).

Background: To compare the recovery in ketofol (ketamine and   propofol) with propofol alone for vas in   patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy Methods: Prospective, randomized, double blinded controlled trial. After approval by the research ethics committee and written informed valid consent of the patients, the proposed study was carried out for a period of one year in 60  patients , in ASA-I and ASA-II patients, aged between 19 to 60 years of either sex, who were  posted for laproscopic cholecystectomy surgery at Indira Gandhi Medical College, Shimla. Results: Recovery profile was statistically significant for two groups. In group P after stopping infusion ,mean time for eye opening was 8.27 ± 1.28 which was less than group K ( 12.53 ± 1.48).  Mean time of response to verbal command in group P(8.4 ± 1.19) was less than group K (12.5 ± 1.46) and mean time of extubation in group P (9.5 ± 1.25) was also less than group K (14.33 ± 1.52). Conclusion- Patients of Group P after stopping of infusion took less time for eye opening, obeying verbal command and also less time for extubation  in comparison to group K .

Objective: To compare the effect of single dose and multiple doses of ciprofloxacin as prophylaxis for prostate biopsy. Method and material: This was a prospective quasi-experimental study carried in the department of Urology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital over seventy patients undergoing prostate biopsy. Half of the patients received single dose of ciprofloxacin and the rest half received three doses of the same drug as antibiotic prophylaxis. Result: Two patients from single dose group and one patient from multiple dose group developed urinary tract infection without any statistical significance Conclusion: Single dose of ciprofloxacin has equal clinical and bacteriological efficacy as that of multiple doses of the same drug for prophylaxis in prostate biopsy.
